Those Skyrims screenshots I took for just the beauty.

Too bad Skyrim gets boring after a few hours. Mods make it gorgeous.

True, the main quest gets tedious so it's only once I completed it. Other than that, I add mods to enhance graphics and make the gameplay a bit too difficult, daedric armor and I still get my butt kicked by a skeever.

Oh, man, for the game to run smoothly with many mods on, I had to build my own PC, runs like butter since upgraded to a custom built supercomputer.

I never will understand the obsession with overclocking the graphics of Bethesda games for asthetics purposes, those games are buggy as hell without that. Then again I haven't seen a screenshot for a game that doesn't look like **** compared to my backyard, so I might be a little biased living somewhere where I can actually go outside and enjoy actual nature whenever I desire to. (The last of us actually came close though)

I used to live in Oregon, I know that feel. Florida is an ugly ass state in comparison.

When you're hiking for half the time and suffering through dreadful combat the other half, making the graphics better in Bethesda's crap is as good as it'll get.

Screens are pretty nice by the way, Purple.

Yeah...shame the gameplay is terrible. Mods def make it the best looking RPG around.

Wish they would just play Dark Souls or Dragon's Dogma or something and fix their terrible combat.

I didn't get the PC version of Skyrim (my gut tells me my computer would burst into flames trying to run it), but this is why I modded the everloving **** out of Oblivion.  It may not play the best, but modded ES games can take your breath away.  Plus, boring?  Not if you start adding GOOD player quest mods.

That's true, Bethesda games may not be the best on their own (with the exception of Fallout 3 and maybe morrowind) but the way Bethesda handles modding gives them huge potential beyond the actual game itself, the graphics have just never been really big on my list of things to mod though.

I had a really powerful graphics card on my computer a few years ago (thing died, though).  Powerful enough to run Oblivion's Really Enhanced Viewable When Distant mod.  Standing on Dive Rock and being able to see the streets of the Imperial City... It's pretty freaking amazing if your computer can handle it.

^ This, seriously.

The best quest line I ever played in Skyrim was, by miles, created by a modder. I was about halfway through the mod when I noticed I cared more about 2 or 3 NPCs in the mod than I did about every other NPC in the original game combined.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
